FESTIVAL PUBLICITY:
The inaugural Mystic Film Festival in 2018 was a huge success. More than 50 films were screened with many filmmakers in attendance for Q&As. Our opening night film, Starfish, was a sold out event. Radio and local print media covered the opening night event, as well as some of the other screenings and panel discussions.

The second annual Mystic Film Festival in 2019 was also a big success; we expanded from two venues to five venues, screened more than 75 films, offered numerous panels and workshops, and received editorial coverage in The Day, Hartford Courant, and Connecticut Magazine.

Because of the 2020 global pandemic, our third festival was a hybrid of in-theater and online screenings for 74 films as well as our first screenwriting competitions. Despite social distancing and other Covid19 safety precautions, our three venues were often sold out. The Westerly Sun and The Day published several festival stories.
